Abstract

Nanomaterials have explored everywhere in the day-to-day technologies, for instance nano circuits in electronics, bio-implants in medicine, aeroplane spare parts, photography and most recently in additive manufacturing (3D Printing) and mostly in oil and gas Nanotechnology has introduced into oil and gas industry and evidenced in many aspects of exploration, drilling, production, refining and distribution. Variety of material hierarchies like, nanofluids, nanocatalysts, nanoemulsions and nanocoatings in the upstream, midstream and downstream have explored. In this review, a brief discussion on the most recent developments of nanotechnology in oil and gas industry for enhanced oil recovery (EOR) methods are discussed.

Keywords: Nanotechnology; Oil and gas EOR; Nanoparticles; Nanocatalysts; Nanosensors
